New Year, New Me

This is the first year I have seriously made resolutions that I want to keep. I always joke about them and make stupid ones that I know I won't keep because I didn't take them seriously to begin with, but here we go...

1. Be nicer to customers

This is going to be tough because Office Depot customers are idiots. But that's not a good attitude to have and neither is mine in general toward that store. I am going to be nicer and more patient with them, and basically, hopefully, this will help me be nicer and more patient all around. This is going to be a toughie.

2. No more ******.

I couldn't bring myself to type his name because he pisses me off so much sometimes, it's not even funny. It was a stupid six months that is over now. It's amazing how I suddenly see that I was in a similar spot LAST year around this time, only that relationship type thing didn't end because I wanted it to, I did not have a say in that one. But that's how this one is ending because it's not healthy and I want it to be over. I'm done with not having emotions just because bad things happen to people who matter to me. And this means I am not allowed to drunk text him on the weekends. IT'S OVER!

3. Run at least 4 times a week.

This one should be the easiest of the three to keep. I was so disgusted with how fat I was the other day, that no more. Hopefully in a couple weeks, maybe a couple months, all the new clothes I bought won't fit because they'll be too big. I've done it before, I can do it again.

****AMENDMENT****
I was back at work one day and already yelled at Tom, so...

4. Be nicer to Tom
Even though he likes to say things like, "Your hair looks dirty" or play Hinder's "Lips of an Angel" while I am on break just to piss me off, I should be calm when talking to him instead of yelling when he says things that irritate me.

*************************************************

****AMENDMENT****

5. Get Better, Mentally and Emotionally
I spent a lot of the last year being angry. Angrier than I have been in a long time. I can't do that anymore because it is not healthy and I have to let it go. I have to work on not being so angry at everyone around me and everything that happens because I can't control any of that, I can only control me. I just have to get that control back again.

*************************************************

In other news, I got my plates for my car today, as well as a Nebraska license. How gross is that, I'm actually a resident of this stupid, backward, racist, homophobic, conservative state. Yuck.

No, but it's dirty now because of the snow and grossness left after the snow. And this post is not about my car, it is about my New year's resolutions.

I was just saying that I have yet to hear or see any description of said car. I know this post is about New Years. I'm aware. Thanks. Can't wait for a post of car pictures. Have a good week!

When it is warm enough for her to get a bath, then I will post pictures.
